Residents of a condominium in Yishun have raised a stink over the bin centre of an adjacent Build-to-Order (BTO) Housing Board (HDB) project that is under construction. Their feedback prompted the HDB to change the orientation of the bin centre and put in a new access road...

It will also extend the PWCS exhaust ducting so that the discharge point is further away from the condominium.

In the e-mail thread, one resident wrote to HDB and Mr Goh: “Put yourself in our shoes. What would you feel, if the greenery next to your house was to be removed, and construction was to be carried out for a few years, only for that greenery to be replaced by a centralised waste centre.”The bin centre at the BTO project will be 32m from the nearest residential block at Skies Miltonia, with the condominium’s tennis court, planted boundary and a future service road between them, said HDB.

HDB representatives met residents to listen to their concerns on March 4 and had yet to respond before the residents behind the petition went door to door to get signatures. He added that he is glad that the PWCS bin centres at least have the technology to reduce odour and noise.
